• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /UI2/FIOCONT112 - Base reference not part of selection ?

  The SAP error message /UI2/FIOCONT112 Base reference not part of selection typically occurs in the context of SAP Fiori applications, particularly when there is an issue with the configuration or selection of data in the Fiori Launchpad or when using OData services.
  Cause:
  
  
  Missing Base Reference: The error indicates that the base reference (which could be a data model or entity) that the application is trying to access is not included in the selection criteria. This can happen if the underlying data model does not have the expected structure or if the data is not available.
  
  
  Incorrect Configuration: The Fiori application might be incorrectly configured, leading to a mismatch between the expected data and what is available in the backend.
  
  
  Authorization Issues: Sometimes, the user may not have the necessary authorizations to access certain data, which can lead to this error.
  
  
  OData Service Issues: If the OData service is not properly defined or if there are issues with the service itself, it can lead to this error.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Data Model: Ensure that the data model being used by the Fiori application includes the necessary base reference. You may need to adjust the selection criteria or the data model itself.
  
  
  Review Configuration: Verify the configuration of the Fiori application in the SAP Fiori Launchpad. Ensure that all necessary parameters and settings are correctly defined.
  
  
  Authorization Check: Make sure that the user has the appropriate authorizations to access the data. You can check this in the user roles and authorizations assigned to the user.
  
  
  OData Service Validation: Check the OData service being used by the application. You can use the SAP Gateway Client (transaction /IWFND/GW_CLIENT) to test the service and see if it returns the expected data. If there are issues with the service, you may need to debug or adjust the service implementation.
  
  
  Check for Updates: Ensure that your SAP system is up to date with the latest support packages and notes, as there may be fixes available for known issues.
